Brightburn

2019, Rated R, 90 min. Directed by David Yarovesky. Starring Elizabeth Banks, David Denman, Jackson A. Dunn, Matt Jones and Meredith Hagner.

"What if Superman was a serial killer?" sounds like an automatic elevator pitch. Brightburn is exactly what that sets up: The childless Breyers, Tori (Banks) and Kyle (Denman) find a baby that fell from the sky, who grows into a 12-year-old (Dunn) with bigger problems than raging hormones, and the power to do anything he wants.
